** Tom, the 2nd of april is fine for me. We have to see that we actually get through the course material, if the subjects listed for the first and the second meeting are over optimistic (too much content) to read through in in two weeks, we should think about adjusting that list. --[[User:Ivom|Ivom]] 22:19, 8 March 2011 (CET)

Revision as of 10:36, 9 March 2011

What day's are most handy for you guy's

what subjects would you like to follow

should we use/follow an existing cours/book as guidline, which ???

Sugested books

Bash cook Book

Jobj Has the book

Jobj Has the PDF

running linux

Jobj has the PDF

Ubuntu unleashed 2011

Getting started with Ubuntu 10.04

Linux from scratch

Beginning Ubuntu Linux, from novice to pro

Ubuntu for non-geeks

Ubuntu linux bible (2007)

Command line and shell scripting bible. (2008)

And some other, miscelanious stuff..

Tom has the pdf's

Bash scripting guide

I think I have the pdf somewhere, if not it's readily available on the net. Perhaps it isn't exactly learning the basics of linux, but it will show how you can do impressive (in my eyes) stuff in an often surprisingly simple way.

Discussion on the day it will be held ..

Koert prefers the weekend. During the week I work nights and I would probably have to leave half way through the workshop every time, if it's planned on a weekday. So weekdays are not impossible for me, but not very practical either. Wednesdaynight isn't a possiblitly imho.

I (Jobj) assume nobody can make it during the day so I only put in two periods for saturday
Sunday we are not peritted to acces the space
Wednesday is meeting night so I'd (Jobj)like to keep that evening free...
(If we have alot of candidates for sunday we can organise at an other location)

First 2 meetings have been agreed on!!

19th and 26nd of march, starting @ 20.00h.

Further meetings can and will be discussed during the workshop.

About the second meeting. I've read that this will be a bi-weekly meeting. Maybe it's best to hold the next workshop on the 2nd of april? Regarding the amount of reading it will take to prepare for the next one?

Feel free to comment on this....

Tom, the 2nd of april is fine for me. We have to see that we actually get through the course material, if the subjects listed for the first and the second meeting are over optimistic (too much content) to read through in in two weeks, we should think about adjusting that list. --Ivom 22:19, 8 March 2011 (CET)

Ivom, that's fine by me. Let's see how the workshop develops in time and effort. The first one will show us a lot more i guess.(Tom)

Should we use books?

From my experience using books is a total go. I mean, from my state of view, where else would i get my knowledge?

There are many good books available on the net. If you find one you like, and it covers a bit of your distro also,
then go for it, i'd say.
Right now, i'm reading the Ubuntu unleashed 2011. (but i've got other one's too. I'll bring them along)

My suggestion --Ivom 22:36, 26 February 2011 (CET) : take Junior level as starting point. Divide the subjects and have the members available choose one or more subjes AND prepare 5-9 meetings to talk about the subjects. Shared effort, might do the trick here to get us on the same level of expertise in the long run; Everyone has to study for it some part, prepare a lecture and host it.

To take the lpi junior level as a starting point, can be a good idea. But to host a lecture about it? Wouldn't it make the whole workshop a bit "academic"? Or how would you go about this?
I for one, know already that with the start of my 2 new modules i will be attending @ CVO, there will be very little time left to learn about Linux, let alone write a lecture about it. Ofcourse this is temporary situation ofcourse...
